Tigger Inspired Cupcakes Recipe

Tigger is playful, funny and curious. With his bright and bubbly personality, I was so inclined to create this Tigger-Inspired Cupcakes. I also made it with the upcoming Christopher Robin movie in mind.

The first thing I think of when someone mentions “Tigger” is how he bounces around everywhere. My cupcakes reflect exactly this: Tigger’s tail bouncing around the Hundred Acre Wood.

Working with fondant is not as hard as you may suspect. For these Tigger tails, I ensured that I covered my fingers with cornstarch to avoid any stickiness. Also, the tails don’t have to be uniform at all. What’s fun about Tigger is that he’s bouncing around everywhere – without rhyme or reason!

Roll into 1-inch spheres and shape into long cylinders, about 3 inches in length and half an inch wide.

Give each cylinder a little curl and place water on the back. Stick one onto each of your yellow fondant circles.

Using a stand mixer, beat together butter, icing sugar and milk on slow. Gradually increase the speed to high. These ingredients will make up your buttercream frosting. It is complete once the ingredients are well-combined, smooth, and form semi-stiff peaks.

Apply buttercream frosting on each cupcake with an offset spatula. Carefully place your fondant creations on each cupcake and enjoy!
